What are the biggest baddest books in literature? War and Peace, Ulysses, Infinite Jest? Could they lick my balls?

W&P and Ulysses aren't bad.

As they are books, I doubt they could lick your balls.

Shoes, however, have tongues. You could try that.

w&p is not bad except it's long. infinite jest is much easier than ulysses, a pain mainly due to length and due to the plot being fractured. it's not hard page to page at all really. don't listen to turbonerds who think they're going to win an award for saying ulysses isn't hard. it's not impossible and you can just read it and have a good but those people probably didn't pick up on more than like 50% of the book and just don't realize there's another 50% there.

This, War and Peace is kind of like the Silmarillion: a lot of characters, a lot of things going on, but it has regular storyline and there are no literary sleights of hand involved. W&P has less orcs tho
